Pro Football Focus also rated him as the most underrated player on the Broncos' roster. Even one of the best left tackles in Broncos' history, Ryan Clady, weighed in with his opinion that Bolles has shown improvement. 

Obviously, Bolles isn’t an elite left tackle in the NFL, but he is a solid one. Penalties have been the issue that needs to be cleaned up, but he has improved each season in this department. 

It will be interesting to see what kind of improvement he can make since he'll have the same offensive line coach for the second year in a row for the first time in his NFL career. For a deep-dive on Bolles, you check out the articles hyperlinked above and the video at the top.
